Local Community Service

The Rotary Club of Andover supports our local community
 
Rotary Readers
Andover Rotarians venture into the classroom once a month to read to students at Andover's West Elementary School.
 
Dear Alan,
Thank you for your email.... Your monthly visits have such a profound impact on my students. You spend time explaining the morals of the books to the children. When you describe your experiences, you inspire the kids to make good choices. Thank you!

We're glad that you like the Valentines, and we look forward to your next visit! Thank you for making such a wonderful connection to all of my students. We greatly appreciate you sharing your time and talents with us!  Happy Valentine's Day!
 
Sincerely,
Martha and the rest of your Fan Club in A-4
 
 
Habitat for Humanity Builds
Andover Rotarians join with the Merrimack Valley Habitat for Humanity to build hope and homes for local families.
 
Thanksgiving Turkey Drive
“Tens for Turkeys” is a favorite annual club activity. Club members donate $10's on at our weekly meetings during November to purchase Thanksgiving turkey dinners for local families of the Andover Housing Authority and Bread & Roses.
 
Food Drives
Andover Rotarians and their families volunteer for food drives to benefit the Lazarus House, Neighbors In Need and the Merrimack Valley YMCA. Doing good while having serious fun!

Andover Day
The Town's biggest street party, held each September in downtown Andover, draws approximately 15,000 guests each year with over 225 vendors from 10 am to 4 pm.  Volunteers from the club start as early as 4 am to help set up, participate with a Rotary booth during the event and return at 4 pm to help break down. It's such a wonderful day to meet our community!
